One of the most popular forms of protecting corpse in 13th and 14th was
coat of plates ( franc.: pair de plates ; ger.: plate ; pl.: Płaty).That type of armor had numerous steel plates, riveted to leather or textile base.

This
particular coat of plates are patterned on armor, which was find in
Visby (Gotland), the biggest archeological findings of this kind of
armor.

Cover is made of natural floral tanned leather.

All
iron parts are profiled, so that armor will fit very well to body, and
are riveted by hand formed rivets ( so rivet caps have irregular shape
). Two steel eyelets and a round, brass buckle are used to fasten the
coats.Color of iron parts is an effect of thermal treatment.
